Diagnostic Technician (Former Employee) – Gaithersburg, MD – January 26, 2017
As a Ford factory trained technician, my duties were but not limited to diagnosis and repair of a vehicles electronic engine controls. The dealership.
Pros
Fellow employees, Training
Cons

Lost confidence in future direction of the company
Global Commodity Manager (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – August 13, 2018
Working at Ford is very stressful. The corporate culture is very, very hidebound and can be really unpleasant sometimes. Managers are poorly trained in people skills and staying current with behavioral practices people coming out of college need. Very unfortunately, bullying of direct reports is still widely tolerated with no plans to do anything to change this. It's sad but I won't miss it.
Pros
Relatively strong job security due to UAW's strength
Cons
Very stressful place to work
Productive and fun place to work
Assembly Line Worker (Former Employee) – St. Louis, MO – August 13, 2018
A great place to work with excellent pay and benefits. The workers are good people. You must be on time and willing to work for the entire shift. The discounts received are an added bonus.
I Love My job
Assembly Worker (Current Employee) – Louisville, KY – August 12, 2018
Ford would be a much better place to work if management was trained better on how to treat workers they make the job more stressful then it has to be the money is good but I don't think it shout take as long to cap out in pay
Pros
Good money
Cons
No paid lunch, management needs training
Hard working technicians, shady two faced salesmen.
Automotive Technician (Former Employee) – Port Orchard, WA – August 11, 2018
If you can maneuver the extremely packed parking areas and dodge the speeding techs. You will be greeted by 3 service writers who have to work the phones and try to help the customers walking in. Takes a while. Not their fault. Small waiting area, dry popcorn, and the never working coffee machine. Very pushy salesmen.
Pros
Free lunch once a month and "random drawn" $50 taxed cash bonus.
Cons
Work in poor conditions, have to provide tour own tools, have to deal with vandal(s), has to take accountability for other employees mistakes...win as a team, fail and its on you.

Im contract
Financial/Business Analyst (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – August 8, 2018
The company seems to be on track with others, but I was contract and due to a reogianzation in my department it made it nearly impossible to get hired direct and grow your career.
Ford was and is an excellent place to work.
Advanced Quality Engineer (Former Employee) – Dearborn, MI – August 7, 2018
The pace although fast paced was extremely interesting. I was allowed to attend to issues with my suppliers and correct deficiencies. My Manager allowed me to schedule my work and did not interfere unless I requested assistance from him. As a Supplier Quality Engineer, I handled all phases from APQP through PPAP and then any issues after product launch.
Pros
fast paced, fair, decent pay, excellent Management in the Group.
Cons
none
Poor work environment
Assembly Line Operator (Current Employee) – Claycomo, MO – August 7, 2018
Overall has great benefits and pay, unfortunately the company itself doesn’t care about you. You are just a number to them. Poor management. Unsanitary work environments.
